Chapter 12: Lunar Eclipse
The pure white space, in which many bookshelves are arranged in rows, and the arrangement of the bookshelves turns this place into a huge labyrinth.
It's just that the bookshelves in the space move from time to time, as if they are screening a certain book, and the bookshelves are removed one by one to reveal Lily who is hiding in the bookshelf.
She was constantly adding keywords to find a way out of the predicament, but she was very distressed when she saw that there were three remaining bookshelves.
"It's too much. β
Although the scope has been reduced to three bookshelves, the scope is still wide. If it was normal, it didn't matter if Lily read it slowly, but there was a desperate boy outside, how could she do that.
"The key words are "Moon Temple", "Trial", "Ice", "Throne", and that's all. β
Lily couldn't find new keywords after trying to find them, which made her more and more anxious.
"Damn...... Something forgot. β
Lily began to think back to the information she had gathered and what she had seen since she entered, and she suddenly noticed something.
The key words are added as "starry sky" and "moon". β
After adding keywords again, the bookshelf disappeared again, and only two books remained.
"The White Moon and the Black Moon?"
Lily picked up the book and began to read it from the Black Moon, but within three minutes of her viewing, the world began to crumble.
"Huh!?"
Lily felt like she had been struck, and she touched her head to see what was going on.
The devastated ground and the boy who had fallen on top of her came into view, and she called him "Rain?" with some uncertainty.
Lily's confusion was due to the fact that the rain had now turned into blue hair and blue eyes, and there were some more wonderful patterns on the right eye. She didn't know that this was the Rain Moon mode, and when he used the Holy Moon after possessing the five Sacred Stone Seeds, his hair would be dyed pale blue, and a pattern called "Stigmata" would appear on his right eye.
"Ah...... Sorry, I can't stop it. β
The rain rose from Lily's body, and now his defensive suit was in tatters, and his sleeves were in tatters. There was frost left on his left knee, and there were many sword wounds on his body, large and small.
"You ......"
"Here we go again!"
Halfway through Lily's words, the rain tossed her aside, and Lily saw the emperor appear in front of the rain. He wielded his broadsword, and Rain was only able to dodge his attacks with a single dodge, only occasionally returning a few punches.
"The rain is coming to my side!"
Lily had prepared the healing magic and waited for the rain to come, but the rain that was forced by the step by step could not withdraw at all, he only dodged every sword, and the cold air on the blade of the sword made his body even colder, and slowly the movements of his limbs became stiffer, and the reaction speed of the rain began to decrease.
Oops!
Rain saw the flickering cold sword coming head-on, but the reaction of his hands and feet couldn't keep up with his brain, and it was obvious that he couldn't block the blow. Just before the sword came, a golden magic array unfolded from under the feet of the rain, and he disappeared from the front of the emperor after being sucked into the magic array.
"Bang!"
The Emperor's sword slashed the platform apart again, but luckily the rain was teleported to him by Lily before the sword fell.
"Thank you. β
Rain thanked Lily as he thawed with his magic, and he didn't take his eyes off the emperor for fear that he would attack him at any moment.
"Leave that guy alone, I've found the conditions to win. β
"Really?"
Rain looked at Lily expectantly, and she gave Rain an affirmative nod.
"To win, this guy has to get items called the White Moon and the Black Moon from the previous trials. β
"Isn't that for nothing...... If we can go back to the previous trial, we don't have to fight him to the death. β
"No, the White Moon and the Black Moon obtained from the previous trials are not impossible to obtain. Even if we skip the previous program, the two quest items are still there, and they are there. β
Lily pointed to the brilliant starry sky overhead, there was an unnatural black and white spot in the starry night, and the rain had not noticed the strangeness due to the fact that he had been busy fighting the emperor.
"Isn't that where the moon was originally located?"
"That's right, the White Moon and the Black Moon are hidden in the previous moons. β
"Danger!"
Rain picked up Lily and flew quickly, and hundreds of ice picks swarmed not long after he took off. The icicles pierced where they were, and their power cannot be ignored.
"Hurry!
"I'm already doing it!"
Lily cried out in the arms of the rain, who was already flying at full speed, like a meteor in the night sky. The pale blue meteor flew to the end of the starry sky, but a tall figure stood in his way.
"What should you do when you run to the front? β
"Just rush over. β
"Wait...... Don't!"
"Hold on to me. β
Lily shouted loudly, and the rain that accelerated his speed even further changed the position of holding Lily to a back-to-back pose, and he clenched his right fist and pulled it back slightly.
The emperor raised his great sword above his head, presumably intending to split the rain that flew in a straight line.
But he didn't expect the speed of the rain to speed up again, and the acceleration of the third stage made the emperor send the rain in front of him before he could swing his sword.
"Baihua!"
The emperor saw a seven-colored rainbow light in front of him, and the corner of his helmet was shattered by the blows of the rain, and the huge momentum caused him to fly upside down for a while.
"It didn't solve him, but at least it bounced him away. β
"It's here!"
Just as Rain was still staring at the Emperor's falling figure, he had reached his destination, and he put Lily down and looked back and forth at the two objects in front of him in confusion. On one side is a pure white full moon, and on the other side is a dark red crescent.
"What's next?"
"I don't know, I was interrupted by them before I finished reading. β
"This ......"
Rain was in a dilemma for a while, even if he knew that the two things in front of him could win for him, but if he didn't know how to use them, it would be in vain.
γWarningοΌγ
The warning of the blue moon sounded, and the rain felt a cold snap blow behind him. The cold feeling had been experienced countless times before, so he was sure who was behind it.
No matter!
When the rain was in danger, he reached out to catch the dark red crescent, and at the moment of contact, he felt a burst of electricity flow through his body, and then a huge magical power rushed through his body. The feeling was exactly the same as the first time I used the Sacred Stone Seed, but this time it was more terrifying and violent.
Rain's whole body erupted with black magic, and this powerful magic force bounced away the emperor who slipped behind him and Lily who was standing next to him.

"Ahh!!!!!!!!!!hh
The rain whined miserably, his original blue hair was covered with gray, his clear eyes were replaced by cloudy gray, and dark red and evil streaks appeared on his face and limbs. There was an extra black long sword on the originally empty right hand, and the dark red spell mark on the sword body was like the body, and a crescent-shaped "shield" appeared on the back of the left hand, and there was a notch at the front of the surprised "shield".
"Rain!"
Lily was frightened at the sight of the mutant rain, she didn't know what was going on, it shouldn't be like this.
But the emperor appeared again, and he went around the rain and swung his sword at the way of the rain's change.
"Bang!"
The first sound was the collision between swords and swords, and the second sound was the sound of the sword bursting out with magic that shook the emperor back.
In the nick of time, Rain turned around and swung his sword to resist, and the result was surprisingly good. The black sword that suddenly swung down burst out with unexpected power and shook the emperor back, and even the opponent's armor was shattered by the aftermath.
"Boom!"
The emperor fell to the frozen platform, and revealing in the armor was a blue-haired girl in a blue bodysuit, her waterfall-like blue hair falling down her cheeks, her closed eyes and offset cheeks indicating that she had fainted.
Lily was stunned by such a sudden situation, and it took a long time for her to understand what was going on.
"Second...... Kill?"
